Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 220

"Since His Highness King Ning is not involved, I can help you." After a while, Yun Qian slowly opened her eyes, her face regained her calm, "As Her Royal Highness said, this is just a transaction."
"You are a smart person." Su Hanxiao nodded with satisfaction, "What do you want?"
"I... don't want to die." Yun Qian was silent for a while, and then slowly highlighted four words.
"Huh?" Su Hanxiao looked at him with some surprise, waiting for his next words.
"I want His Highness to protect me from death under any circumstances." Yun Qian said.
Su Hanxiao was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help being greatly surprised. He really didn't expect him to propose such a condition, and only said: "Time limit?"
"Until... the new emperor succeeds to the throne." Yun Qian said softly.
Su Hanxiao's face suddenly turned cold. If he said this, he might be treasonous. However, this man probably wouldn't care.
When the new emperor succeeds to the throne, she and King Ning have long been in a deadly situation. If King Ning wins, she will naturally not be able to fulfill her promise to continue protecting him. If she successfully succeeds to the throne, she will definitely not leave a confidant in trouble!
"Okay, I promise you." Su Hanxiao nodded with a sneer.
Really, very interesting person!

The empress, who has always been gentle, finally acted vigorously for a while, and the next morning, she directly threw a concubine and two princes into the sixth department, euphemistically called: experience.
Well, this is nothing, after all, whether it is the future empress or the auxiliary prince, it is inevitable to be exposed to these practices. Since the empress wants to train an heir, the ministers will naturally be ignorant, but... Did the Queen really not mistake the location?
The division of power in the court is tacitly understood by everyone. There will be no problems with such a distribution...
Liu Si, the No. 1 civil servant, and Lan Saiying, the No. 1 general, stood at the top of the queue on both sides of the Fengxiang Hall, their eyes intersected far away, and they rarely agreed.
"Then it's settled like this!" The empress said without waiting for them to finish digesting the news, "The affairs of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War must not be delayed!"
"Yes." Su Hanxiao and the three could only go forward to thank them.
Fortunately, the empress had already greeted her yesterday, if she directly mentioned it in the morning today, I am afraid the reaction would be even more exciting!
"Retire!" The queen didn't ask anyone to say anything, and directly announced the disbandment of the court.
After a while, all the officials went out in twos and threes, discussing in private while walking.
Su Hanxiao glanced at Rong Jue who showed no surprise on his face, smiled lightly, and strode out of Fengxiang Hall.
King Mu must have informed the Lord Shangshu in advance, and King Ning must have also informed Gong Nanyue of the Ministry of Officials, but he himself did nothing.
She hasn't figured out the queen's intentions yet, so how can she make a rash decision?What's more, the relationship between Han Shangshu and her is very delicate at present. The last time Han Shumo went home and stayed for a night, he has improved a lot, but it is far from the point where he can entrust his confidant. It is safer to take it step by step.
Back to the East Palace for lunch, after a night and a morning rest, Yun Qian's complexion is much better, at least from the surface, it is not as haggard as yesterday, but the eyes are more cold, not the same as before. The spring-like warmth in the red building is quite different.
Mei Ruoshui also changed into a light blue outfit that is convenient for going out of the palace.
Su Hanxiao sighed, thinking that it would be better to find a loyal and reliable bodyguard with good martial arts skills. In such a matter, there was no need for Mei Ruoshui to follow him. it is good.
"Your Highness, be careful." Baili Qing said in a deep voice, "Although Rong Jue dare not engage in any conspiracy on national affairs, there will be no small tricks in private."
"Of course I know, if I go to the Ministry of Accounts today, I will probably meet someone who will be disqualified first!" Su Hanxiao sneered.
Yun Qian silently took out a silk scarf to cover her face, as if realizing something.
"Presumably you also understand what you are going to do." Su Hanxiao glanced at him lightly.
"I'm still good at checking accounts, so I don't know what step Her Majesty wants to check?" Yun Qian asked coldly.
"It depends on the situation." Su Hanxiao shrugged and said, "Let's go."
Yun Qian followed without hesitation, but looked at Mei Ruoshui who was also silent.
Because of the presence of Mei Ruoshui, Su Hanxiao habitually didn't bring the guards along, and didn't even order the carriage to be prepared. The three of them took a walk and came to the household department slowly.
The household officials who had been notified long ago, led by Rong Jue, were all waiting for the arrival of the Crown Princess, but they couldn't help being stunned when they saw that they came over without any fanfare.
"Welcome Your Majesty the Empress Dowager." Rong Jue quickly came to his senses and hurriedly led people to pay homage.
"No." With a wave of his hand, Su Hanxiao interrupted their salute, and said calmly, "His Royal Highness has been practicing in the household department under the order of the emperor these few days, so I should ask Rong Shangshu to take care of him."
"Don't dare." Rong Jue laughed along, glanced at the person behind her, but couldn't help being slightly taken aback.
Of course she recognizes Mei Ruoshui. Although she is nominally the queen's queen, she has never been bound by palace rules. She even went to the battlefield and made great achievements. Such words, who else would dare not give the Queen face?Naturally, they turned a blind eye and closed one eye wisely.
It's just... another man with his face covered, why does his figure look familiar?She didn't think that except for Mei Ruoshui, she would recognize the servants of the Eastern Palace.
"Your Highness, please." While thinking about it, she remained calm on the surface, leading the way to an elegant courtyard, and pushed open a door.
